  • Abstract
    A calibration factor (‘dial settingʹ) for the nondestructive assay of Guidant TiNi-encapsulated 32P intravascular brachytherapy wire sources has been determined for measurements with the Capintec CRC-12 (sic. ‘dose calibratorʹ) ionization chamber. The calibration factor was derived from ionization current measurements with the CRC-12 followed by very quantitative, destructive assays of the 32P content in two sources.
